Schoenhut® Piano Company: “Leader in the World of Toy Pianos since 1872”

Schoenhut® toy pianos have delighted children, collectors, and professional musicians for decades. Since the company's founding in 1872 by German emigrant Albert Schoenhut, the keyboard’s magical overtones, hypnotic charm, and unique sound have matured from novelty to fine musical instruments. Unsurpassed in quality, pitch, and durability, each traditional model is still crafted entirely by hand and individually tuned. The unique chime-like notes of Schoenhut® toy pianos are produced by little hammers striking metal bars, versus conventional taut wires used in full-sized models.

Schoenhut® toy pianos; designed for children and built to endure active play, are appropriate for young and old alike. Juiliard-graduate Margaret Leng Tan, an internationally acclaimed concert pianist, is an ardent fan of Schoenhut®. "Anything you can play on the big piano, you can play even better on a toy," Ms. Tan told USA Today upon release of her CD "The Art of the Toy Piano” (Point Music).

44-Key Baby Grand Piano
Schoenhut® Piano Pals®
Coinciding with its 135th anniversary, Schoenhut® Piano Company proudly introduces a line of mid-sized, 44-key, stringed pianos with perfect pitch and TRUE PIANO SOUND, a new concept in the world of music. The keys are the same dimensions as those on a full-sized piano, the keyboard half the width.

Schoenhut, leader and innovator in the industry, recognized the need for a mid-sized piano to ease the transition to a full-sized version.

Piano teachers comment repeatedly on the importance of being able to reach the pedals. Perfect for children, especially age five and up, they are also being ordered by professional musicians and people with space limitations. For anyone wanting the performance and quality of a big piano, but requires a smaller size, Schoenhut's 44-key piano is a perfect solution.

When you want the very best, choose Schoenhut, leader in the world of toy pianos since 1872. Investment in a Schoenhut piano will provide years of enjoyment, and may become a treasured heirloom passed down from generation to generation.

Baby Grands available in white, black, and red.
Uprights available in black and white.

Schoenhut® offers this versatile little piano that grows with your child!! The main unit, decorated with a whimsical animal's head, is perfect for toddlers because it sits safely and squarely on the floor within easy reach of little hands. Later on, the sides with the animal's body can be attached, conveniently raising the piano to a comfortable height for an older child seated at the bench.

Included is Schoenhut®'s Learning System with a removable color-coordinated strip that fits behind the keys to guide small fingers from chord to chord. The accompanying songbook contains a collection of familiar tunes.

Whether for a holiday gift, baby shower, any special occasion, or just for fun, this little piano is the perfect answer. Most importantly, it will encourage a child on the path to music.

Schoenhut's® "Toddler-sized" piano is the perfect choice for introducing a young child to the world of music. This smaller version, with its scaled-down keyboard, is designed specifically for little folks to have a first piano just the right size for them. Both fun and educational (and also extremely durable), it is the ideal instrument to promote eye-hand coordination and develop musical creativity.

Small hammers strike metal rods, producing lovely chime-like tones, educating the ear of the young performer to the true values of musical notes and their combinations. Another point of merit is that the keys are the standard width of a full-sized piano, enabling the child to easily graduate to a larger piano.

The Learning System, with its play-by-color assortment of songs, makes playing simple and fun. A removable color-coordinated strip fits behind the keys to guide small fingers from chord to chord. The corresponding Songbook contains a collection of familiar tunes.

This piano is available in black, pink or white

Made of Maple and Hardboard, it is 8.5 in. high x 13.25 in. wide x 15.25 in. deep and weighs 9 lbs.
